I frequently anticipate this happening...has yet to ...

Yeah, nothing beats that. Ouch.

yeah, the trunk slap is like my version of honking the horn. people get pissssssed...

up the trunk slaps

got cut off by a cab dropping a passenger off, decided to just pull right in front of me to the curb while i was literally riding right next to him gettin ready to go through a green light. Forced me to the curb and then directy into a light post on Broad Street.

Riding East on Girard, ready to make a left onto 3rd so I'm in the left lane, when a Septa bus driver heading West decided to swerve completely across the double yellow line, totally into the left lane of the East-bound side of the street, directly in front of me. Head-on collision was imminent, so I swerved to the right, got clipped by his front bumper anyway, and nearly bought it underneath the car to my right. Son of a *****.

I was born and raised in Philly too, and I go back pretty often. Yeah, there are a lot of nice bikes, and it really aint that bad like people make it out to be.

On another note, I'm stoked about the Bilenky race on the 9th. That thing sounds fun.
